Amazing! Is the Crystal Cave in Iceland actually natural crystal or is it smooth ice? The cave in Mexico (further down the page) is natural crystal but I wasn't sure about the Icelandic one.

I had seen a photo of the Crystal Cave elsewhere but I never followed up on it. Here's stunning collection of photos and yes, it's natural. Amazing.

That part of Iceland has a lot of volcanic activity and does produce cave formations and crystal displays but it also has a glacier running through it and the photo' certainly looks like an ice cave.

I shared them on my facebook.. way cool!
I expressly forbid the use of any of my posts anywhere outside of FG (with the exception of the incredibly witty 'get a room already' )posted recently.

Folks who'd like to copy my intellectual work should expect to pay me for it.:-6

Awesome images and thanks to the photographers who have taken these shots! I would tend to think some of them have been adjusted but the beauty is still there. I luv photography! It captures a moment as it happens and will never happen again!

Thanks for sharing Snooze!!

Awesome! This one baffles me. Also, I wonder how that stone forest was formed.
